BTTH: I married Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate our marriage!

Chapter 281: The Final Winner!



Hun Huzi's face was dark with rage, and fury flickered in his eyes, but ultimately, he was helpless.

This time, he had lost!

He clenched his teeth hard.

"Forget it!" he cursed under his breath, his eyes flashing with reluctance.

Even though Gu Fei had taken part of the Nihility Devouring Flame's sub-flame from him, he couldn't give up now!

"Luckily... The energy from the two old men's fire cauldrons, I've already snatched most of it."

Hun Huzi glanced around, his gaze sweeping over the fire cauldrons of Elder Shen Nong and Yao Wanhuo. A sinister smile tugged at his lips.

With that, he still had hope!

Taking a deep breath, he forced himself to calm down. He looked down at his own fire cauldron, where golden light flickered, and the embryonic form of a pill had already appeared.

"With this much energy, it's enough!"

He made a series of hand seals, fully immersing himself in the art of alchemy.

Inside the fire cauldron, energy surged, and a gleaming golden pill embryo floated within.

The surrounding audience held their breath, eyes locked on Hun Huzi's fire cauldron. Even some of the seasoned alchemists couldn't help but be amazed.

"It looks like Hun Huzi is about to succeed!"

"I didn't expect him to form the embryo of a ninth-tier Mysterious Pill so quickly!"

"His alchemy skills truly live up to the reputation!"

Voices of astonishment echoed among the crowd.

If he succeeded in refining a ninth-tier Mysterious Pill, he would be the only one here to achieve such a feat. That would mean he'd claim the title of the world's greatest alchemist!

A glint of fervor flashed in Huzi's eyes. This was the goal he had spent his whole life striving toward!

The thought of reaching his long-desired dream filled him with excitement, and his hands moved even faster.

However, on Gu Fei's side, trouble was brewing.

"It's still not enough!" Gu Fei frowned, feeling the sparse energy around him. He grew anxious as he realized he couldn't draw any more energy from the surroundings.

Just when he was at a loss, his gaze fell upon Huzi's fire cauldron.

Suddenly, a bold idea popped into his head.

"That's it!" His eyes lit up, and a sly smile appeared on his face.

'Xiao Ying! It's your turn to shine!' Gu Fei silently called out.

In the next moment, something completely unexpected happened. Xiao Ying's small figure vanished from its original spot and reappeared atop the black fire cauldron in front of the Nihility Devouring Flame.

The tiny flame baby moved swiftly, like lightning.

"What?!" Hun Huzi's pupils shrank, disbelief written all over his face.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

He never would have imagined that Gu Fei would dare target him at this critical moment!

Enough already! Hadn't he just stolen part of his sub-flame?

Before he could react, Xiao Ying quickly lifted the lid of the fire cauldron. A mischievous glint flashed in its lava-like eyes, and it swiftly swallowed the pill embryo inside!

"You're courting death!" Hun Huzi completely lost it.

He had poured so much effort into that pill embryo!

His eyes turned red, and veins bulged on his face, making him look like a crazed beast. He roared and slammed a palm toward Xiao Ying.

But Xiao Ying was incredibly nimble, easily dodging the attack. It soared through the air in a graceful arc before landing back on Gu Fei's shoulder.

The whole scene happened so fast that the audience could barely react. When they finally realized what had occurred, the place erupted into chaos.

"Oh my god! He actually..."

"He...he stole Hun Huzi's pill!"

Exclamations filled the air, as no one had expected Gu Fei to pull such a stunt.

In the VIP section, Xiao Yi Xian and Cai Lin couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Xiao Ying, you did great!" they clapped and cheered.

Meanwhile, Hun Huzi was far from amused. His entire body radiated a terrifying aura, as though a volcano was about to erupt.

"Give me back my pill!" He roared, his figure flashing as he charged toward Gu Fei.

Although Gu Fei wasn't afraid of him, fighting now would undoubtedly disrupt his pill

refining.

Just as Gu Fei was preparing for battle, two figures suddenly stepped in front of him.

It was none other than Elder Shen Nong and Yao Wanhuo!

"Aren't you being a bit too domineering?" Elder Shen Nong snorted coldly.

"It seems I can't stay on the sidelines anymore," Yao Wanhuo added.

The two alchemy masters acted simultaneously, causing the sky to change colors.

Shen Nong summoned his Life Spirit Flame, while Wanhuo unleashed the Nine Serene Wind Flame. The two top-tier Heavenly Flames intertwined in the air, forming an impenetrable

fiery barrier.

Although Huzi's Nihility Devouring Flame was powerful, it couldn't easily break through the combined might of the two flames.

The clash of the three flames caused deafening explosions, shaking the entire plaza. Amidst the earth-shattering battle, Gu Fei found a rare moment to breathe. With both of them holding Hun Huzi at bay, he could finally focus on refining his pill. However, the process of merging two different medicinal properties was far from simple.

Gu Fei looked down at his fire cauldron, where golden light and black smoke were swirling together- clear signs that the two medicinal properties were repelling each other.

At this rate...

Suddenly, Xiao Ying leaped into the cauldron and began purifying the conflicting properties with its extraordinary powers.

The flame spirit's abilities were indeed formidable!

Under its influence, the impurities in the pill embryo from Hun Huzi's cauldron were

gradually eliminated, leaving behind pure energy.

Gu Fei concentrated intensely on controlling the process, beads of sweat forming on his

forehead.

Merging the two conflicting properties was a massive challenge for him.

But even then, he still felt the energy wasn't quite enough.

Gu Fei furrowed his brows, silently calculating his next move.

"Young friend, let me offer a helping hand. Don't let all that energy go to waste." An elderly

but powerful voice rang out.

Gu Fei looked up to see Elder Shen Nong waving his hand, sending a radiant green orb of energy from his cauldron toward him.

The orb contained abundant vitality, clearly the leftover energy from his fire cauldron.

"Then I'll contribute as well!" Yao Wanhuo followed Elder Shen Nong's lead.

A blue orb of energy flew towards him.

The audience was stunned by the actions of these two esteemed alchemists.

After all, this was precious energy for refining a ninth-tier Mysterious Pill!

They just gave it away so easily?

But on closer thought, their actions weren't without reason. Helping Gu Fei now was, in a way, an investment. With his talents at such a young age, he had limitless potential. Forming a good relationship with him would undoubtedly benefit them in the future.
